BNY Mellon has launched direct custody and settlement services in the Netherlands.
The company has established a direct contractual arrangement with Euroclear Netherlands enabling its broker-dealer services clients more timely access to the Dutch market, through maximizing pre-matching and turnaround capabilities. Clients in this market will have the ability to use a later deadline for security instructions and will benefit from quicker updates for transaction reporting, said a statement from BNY Mellon.
Commenting on the development, Drew Demko, global head of Sales and Business Manager for Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) BNY Mellon Broker-Dealer Services said: We are continually looking at ways of improving service and delivery to our clients. It is our goal to support all of their operational, technology and funding needs and this is an important step for clients wishing to access the Dutch market and ties in with BNY Mellon’s strategic focus in moving closer to market for our global clearing product.
